"That's a pretty name." Gretchen smiles. "All Biblical and stuff. My mom named me after her grandma - who was awesome, but c'mon." She leans in and whispers conspiratorially, "It could be worse. My brother's name is Ingo."
She shakes her head, smiling in sympathy for her brother. "Mom's grandparents came here after the war and all. It's like, this crazy romantic story, cause they totally never would've met in thier home country."
Gretchen leads Sarah over to a rack of twinsets and starts holding them up in front of the other girl, pursing her lips in contemplation.
